You're just assuming they're telling the truth though.

I also said I don't like the guy... but this sounds like a classic grift.

I don't like Aquaman either, but if the child abuse allegations are true, then he really deserves to get what's coming for him. If the kids/ex-wife are just taking advantage of the situation, then the whole family is pretty fucked up.

Aquilini is way more of a villain than he is a hero. This story, if true, would not be all too surprising to me.

Maybe they're telling the truth, maybe they aren't. Why would you assume one way or the other? Because he owns your favourite hockey team?

I'll just say I can empathize with them. If it's true, they should take him for every last penny. I know I would

whitev70r 09-28-2022 06:56 PM

As with all things ... the truth is somewhere in between what the ex-wife/kids say vs. Aquaman.

68style 09-29-2022 07:11 PM

Kuzmenko is really fucking good, this is exciting.

punkwax 09-29-2022 07:36 PM

Great game so far, for sure.

bobbinka 09-29-2022 10:26 PM

Apparently, Rachel Doerrie has been fired.

whitev70r 09-29-2022 11:16 PM

OK, what's the big deal? Is there like a juicy story on reddit about this or something? Or maybe shows how stupid Canucks mgmt is on this let's hire for 'diversity' publicity stunt ?

On the ice ... lost in OT after leading 3-1. Wasted Kuzmenko's night.

Rumours that it sounds like FA made the call, since the article stated "highest level of management"

68style 09-30-2022 07:31 AM

I wonder why she deleted all her tweets, that seems extremely odd

Hondaracer 09-30-2022 07:38 AM

Some comments in that article said she was going off in interviews about how peteys injury wasn’t as bad as he made it and so and so are anti-vax nut jobs etc.

If these rumours are true, that Aquaman made the decision to fire this video analyst Doerrie, then the big boss is a hypocrite.

Did the big boss not tell the media during the initial days of hiring Benning that the GM has "complete autonomy" on the team? I assume that a GM has the power to hire or fire a video analyst.

It took an owner of an NHL team to fire a video analyst instead of letting his GM make the call?

whitev70r 09-30-2022 08:02 AM

Any exec that says, 'GM and management team has complete autonomy' is blowing smoke ... c'mon you know how life really works. Aquaman tells the mgmt team 'you have complete and total autonomy' but when he wants something done and calls you over for lunch and begins with, 'Listen .. about so and so ...' What are you going to do?

spoon.ek9 09-30-2022 08:22 AM

sooo.. it's almost that time of year. who's got a reliable site for streams? send those PMs!

i seem to recall nhl66 biting the dust last season towards the end.

Yup, that is life. A micro managing owner of our Canucks.

You would think that Aquaman is so busy with multiple business ventures in real estate development, blueberry farms, etc that he would leave the day to day operations of his hockey team to his GM. That would include HR decisions.

I read it was on a podcast. Peteys injury and that Miller is anti-vaxx. Just downright shitting on the team.

“I did get it confirmed Wednesday morning that she was no longer with the Vancouver Canucks, but I elected not to report it,” said Dhaliwal. “My source told me she was going through a tough time, she’s only 25 years old, and public firings are hard to deal with… it wasn’t anything sinister or juicy or gossip like so many people are already predicting. Just a decision by a hockey club, and I’m going to leave it at that.

“Absolutely, 100% unequivocally it had nothing to do with Francesco Aquilini.”
Lol, but then her mom goes on twitter:

Let's get the season started already

I think i remember the same thing, that she was shitting on Petey and some other canucks. Pretty sure that doesnt sit well with the players.

I assume this was before her hiring?
Did no one do any background research on her in prior?

Hondaracer 10-01-2022 05:04 AM

Reminds me of when Tom Larschied was shitting on the team going on about how Iginla was the type of player you need etc. this happened for a few games I remember clearly thinking wtf is this clown going on about shitting on the team on a local broadcast

Subsequently he was let go shortly after. You can only bite the hand that feeds you so many times before you’re cut loose. Not like it was that much of a loss by the time he got cut. John and John are a far better tandem
